road noise

[cliffjumper]

dont know if its the right term.. im referring to the sound created between the tire and the road.. pansin ko kasi na parang masyadong malakas yung sa akin lalo na kapag hi-way speed na ako.. ok lang kapag aspalto yung daan, pero kapag naging rough na yung road surface ang ingay na.
can you suggest anything to lessen this noise.. pina undercoat ko na pero di gaanong nabawasan. do i have to change tires? ... salamatzzz..

changing to better tires will do wonders to road noise (recommend: bridgestone turanzas GR50 SS).

you can also spray on sound proofing materials sprayed on like anti-rust (ask zeibart) which also lessens road noise ... but the tires are your best bet.

My best bet is that your tires are Goodyear NCT3's. Ganyan din ang problema ko. Grabe talaga road noise ng mga tires na yan. Balak ko rin
mag switch to Bridgestone Turanza pero tiis muna ko ngayon kasi sayang bago pa mga NCT3's ko.

[splukutum]

NCT 5 ng goodyear ba ganyan din kaingay like the NCT 3?

[elias33ph]

ako nct3 din dati sobra talaga ingay and madali pang mag crack and 1 1/2 year pa lang. trade in ko sa evanheslista pasay for bridgestone turanza prinesyuhan ng 750/tire.

[cliffjumper]

salamat mga pre.. galing mo tridagger, goodyear NCT3 nga ang gulong ko. bad trip, minsan di ko marinig sinasabi ng kausap ko sa sobrang ingay.. i read somewhere na may type of rug na nakakareduce ng road noise.. try ko rin maghanap nun atsaka yung spray na sinasabi ni mr. M.

[ghosthunter]

All new Corolla Altis use Goodyear NCT5 now... Any feedback for that tire?... grip, roadnoise, durability?

Some low profile tires with strong side walls and ZR rated always make significantly more noise than all season tires.

usually nga sa tire yan... although the design of the car itself contributes a lot too. yung ibang cars, like the EK civic, talagang pumapasok yung road noise as if kakaunti yung insulation (from experience)...

may ibang surfaces naman na talagang maingay... usually ito yung coarse na asphalt. you'll hear the droning noise in any car, pero syempre, more in others.

Use acoustifoam sa flooring underneath your carpets. Great for acoustic insulation and thermal resistance.

or mag set up ka ng sounds para di mo marinig yung tires he..he :lol: j/k

[cliffjumper]

kimpoy,
my thoughts exactly.. am actually planning to set up my audio this christmas, kaya lang napurnada yung budget ko sa multitel.. pero hintayin ko na lang yung bonus (kung meron).. next year na lang yung mga inaanak. :lol:

afrasay,
try ko mag inquire dito sa amin about acoustifoam, ngayon ko lang narinig yan eh.. is it that effective? salamatzzz..

[jorebo]

cliffjumper,

Try asking the car stereo places over there about "DYNAMAT". This is very popular among car audio freaks, a type of acoustical foam you can apply to your floor boards, door panels, firewalls, trunkwalls and any surface you think radiates noise. The goal is to isolate the cabin from external noise.

andami ko ng nabasa na halos mga goodyear tires en maingay... I onced unsed goodyear... ngayon, nagtipid eh yokohama na... nabawasan nga yung ingay... dunno about the tires mentioned... medyo mahal mga nst na iyan compared sa entry-level tires I use... mahal na gasolina, mahal pa diaper, at lalo na sustagen junior... hay~~~ gastos talaga... eh kami nun milkmaind at alaska lang solb na... sorry for the OT...

[cliffjumper]

ahaha!! ok lang, i can somehow relate.. except for the diaper and sustagen junior (dun lang sa gasolina at yokohama tires)..

[cliffjumper]

hello pipol, update ko lang. just changed my tires this morning. i switched to bridgestone turanza as most of you suggested.. OK sya mga pre!!!
bale 1900 per tire, total 7600 plus pina align, camber etc. ko na rin.. umabot ng 9000 (dem ang sakit sa bulsa!!) pero sulit. hinataw ko kaagad pero up to 100 kph lang, ramdam ko talaga ang improvement sa noise reduction at comfort na rin.. i asked kung ano difference ng potenza sa turanza.. potenza daw is more of a performance tyre, while turanzas are comfort tires, kaya turanza na ako (atsaka mas mahal daw kasi potenza.. ehehe)
anyways, thanks for the help peeps.. maaasahan talaga kayo.. :mrgreen:
try ko rin next time yung acoustifoam na sinasabi ni afrasay..
problem now is sobrang tahimik ng ride, yung mga katok naman sa dashboard ang naririnig ko.

[pajerokid]

tire change and sound insulation. Meron sa ziebart na "spray on" solution

[cliffjumper]

update lang ulit. tried to look for dynamat last week sa car audio shops atsaka dito sa alabang area, wala akong mahanap, may exclusive distributor ba to? Flash band ang nakita ko dito sa true value (town center).. kaya lang parang maliit yung size at mabigat atsaka parang may asphalt sa loob.. kakatakot iapply sa doors, baka bumigay yung hinges pag tumagal dahil sa extra load at parang madumi tignan (ganun ba talaga yun?)..
acoustifoam na lang ang binili ko (kahit na medyo makapal), inapply ko na rin sa flooring lang last saturday (sa harap lang muna) ok naman sya, ramdam ko na mas nanggagaling na yung ingay sa likod. ill try to experiment with other products pag may nakita ako..

d ba mitsubishi cars have out of factory sound insulation? tama ba?
